Dead Alice Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Ta da! My very own poetry thread! I'll start off with a very odd one that makes no sense whatsoever! :rolleyes: [size=1][color=red][B]Falling Backwards[/B] In a world of candy canes and paper cranes the sky is green and no birds sing Where blood flows through rivers like wine and tears become the dragon?s spine The morning clouds pour acid rain and wait for night to come again Pain is a weakness from within a tortured soul Sitting in an upside-down room of clocks and mirrors Viewing outside the window where the earth is gone Spinning in squares; I?m falling backwards Stop me before I wake up and have to face the light beyond the veil There?s too much darkness; I can?t see anymore Time is ticking; it won?t wait for you to rescue me Hurry, I?m slipping through the black demon?s mist Grab its wings; don?t let it get away Stab through the surface as the silver bells chime Blood floating in the sky as golden raindrops fall from hell The signal?s gone; your time is up and back to the beginning you return I fade and reform again; my body is melting like ice Burn the ashes, torch like flame and listen to the fallen angels sing Death is stalking you, for you have failed Life shall be repeated as I sit here in my upside-down room A deaf ear listening to the frozen clocks on the wall Tick tock your time is up The mourning doves shall laugh at you as I sing my hollow song[/color][/size] [color=blue][size=1][B]Your Wings Are Mine[/B] Listen to the spirits calling A cold night wind Shadows fleeting Let the darkness hold you As time is slowly shifting Be quiet now Can you hear them singing? They're beckoning to the earth Do not be afraid I will watch them slip away Form and fading Tightly gripping Quickly slipping Into fragile dreams Hold still, be strong You must hold on As wings emerge The blood is gone Floating freely Screaming in pain Your life is hanging Let it fall The nightmares end Do not stop Do not look back Sipping poison In broken glass Cutting ribbons Falling fast The ropes that bind Your fate to mine Cannot be cut now Say goodbye[/size][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
